E. Adah Miller; L. Berland; T. Campbell – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2024
There is an urgent call for science and STEM teachers to incorporate practices for equity-centered environments, social justice-orientations, criticality and other practices that promote system change. Yet this demand occurs against the backdrop marginalization of teachers' from having a say in the planning, teaching, and assessments in their own…

Julie C. Brown; Michelle C. Joyce – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2024
Developing culturally responsive science teachers requires changes in one's knowledge and dispositions, as well as one's instructional practices. Multicultural science instruction (MSI) provides educators with a framework for strengthening and disrupting the formal curriculum in ways that infuse critical, historical, and culturally responsive…

Science teacher leaders have been identified as an important lever for the implementation of science education reform. However, science reform implementation is locally controlled and not uniform across districts; therefore, the work of STLs within a reform context can vary. In this descriptive case study, we explore the work of 11 science teacher…

Anna Maria Arias; Brendan E. Callahan; Michael Dias; Karen Kuhel – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2024
New reforms and the Next Generation Science Standards call for three-dimensional learning through the integration of the crosscutting concepts (CCCs) with the science and engineering practices (SEPs) and disciplinary core ideas (DCIs). However, teachers face challenges in knowing how and why to incorporate the CCCs in their planning and teaching,…

Ernest Nkosingiphile Mazibe – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2024
Teaching practice internships provide opportunities for pre-service teachers (PSTs) to enact their knowledge in real classroom settings. This paper investigated PSTs' pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) about electrostatics, its translation into practice and factors that affect the translation. The refined consensus model (RCM) of PCK served as…

Lisa A. Borgerding; Jennifer L. Heisler; Breanna C. Beaver; A. O. Prince – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2024
Climate change is a growing global crisis with short and long-term physical and human impacts. Although climate change is a global occurrence, the impacts of climate change are not felt equally among all locations and all groups of people. Climate justice education is a form of social justice education that invites students to consider how the…

Erin E. Peters-Burton; Hong H. Tran; Brittany Miller – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2024
The use of data to explain natural phenomena has been a core feature of science education, and science educators continue to call for an increased emphasis on teaching data practices. This mixed methods design-based research study adds to the growing body of research on data practices in science by explaining the learning trends of science…

Carla M. Firetto; Emily Starrett; Michelle E. Jordan – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2024
This study examined the impact of a practice-based approach to in-service science teacher education, using small-group discussions about photovoltaic (PV) science to support teachers' instruction on sustainable energy transitions in response to climate change risks. Ultimately, we aimed to promote teachers' PV science comprehension as well as…

María Esther Téllez-Acosta; Andres Acher; Scott P. McDonald – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2024
Learning to plan modeling-based investigations (MBIs) presents significant challenges for pre-service elementary teachers. Although they understand disciplinary core ideas and modeling practices, they address both as competing learning goals and, as novices, they have not experienced how to structure MBIs for their future students. In the context…

Cullinane, Alison; Erduran, Sibel – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2023
Understanding Nature of Science (NOS) is a requisite for improving scientific literacy, and as such, it is increasingly being included in science curricula worldwide. It is now therefore important that teachers understand NOS so that intended learning outcomes become visible in the classroom. Pre-service teachers also need an opportunity to…

Crabtree, Lenora M.; Stephan, Michelle – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2023
Recent events reveal the impact of systemic inequities on marginalized communities and highlight the importance of critical frameworks in science teacher education. Education theorists and research suggest that lack of sociopolitical, or critical, consciousness among teachers limits their ability to engage students in culturally relevant teaching…

Miller-Rushing, Anica; Hufnagel, Elizabeth – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2023
In-service teachers of science work with unique content and pedagogical experiences within a changing educational landscape. Understanding teacher agency in these circumstances will help researchers understand the actions that these teachers take. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to review how the agency of K-12 in-service teachers of science…

McCausland, Jonathan; Jackson, Jennifer; McDonald, Scott; Bateman, Kathryn; Pallant, Amy; Lee, Hee-Sun – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2023
Learning to teach is a culturally situated activity. As teachers learn, it is important to understand not only what teachers learn, but how they learn. This article describes a qualitative case study of a subset of four teachers' learning during a professional development surrounding a plate tectonics curriculum. Using qualitative methods, this…

Krell, Moritz – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2023
Teachers' career choice motives are defined as the interests, orientations, and motives of young people that motivate them to aspire the teaching career. Teachers' career choice motives have been shown to impact teaching and job retention. Many studies investigated teachers generic career choice motives but studies on teachers' subject-specific…
